Three IceRays to attend AHL training camp

Players to work out with Houston Aeros

Coach Sylvain Cloutier said Monday that forward Adam Powell, defenseman Jeremy Leroux and goaltender Dustin Traylen will attend training camp with the Houston Aeros of the American Hockey League.

Cloutier, who captained the Aeros to the 2003 Calder Cup championship, said the players will report for physicals today at the team's practice facility in Sugar Land. Cloutier planned to be in Houston later this week to observe Aeros camp.

Of the three players, only Traylen has appeared in an AHL game, getting one start with the Providence Bruins during the 2005-06 season.

Powell, a third-year winger, has spent his entire pro career in Corpus Christi. Leroux signed with the IceRays this summer after spending his rookie season last year with Port Huron of the International Hockey League. Traylen, entering his fourth campaign, spent last season with the Laredo Bucks, the IceRays' biggest rival.

The IceRays are slated to begin training camp next Monday at the American Bank Center. Their Central Hockey League season opener will be on Oct. 18 on home ice against Tulsa.
